First of I want to thank all the participants of the The Decentralized Mic - Marketing Spotlight for have taken the time to participate and shed some insight into web3 marketing for the Polkadot ecosystem. It goes without saying that there is an greater gratefulness felt for the work done when the camera is not rolling.
With this post I want to open a thread to gather feedback on the new series “The Decentralized Mic” and specifically the Marketing Spotlight for those that have watched the whole video.
I would also like to share my point of view, I hope to make it as constructive as possible.
- Make room for genuine dialogue between the panel speakers: It is understandable that we need to moderate and manage the flow of the conversation, however I felt there was to little room for depth and sincerity.
- Have less panel speakers: the session was imho too fragmented which might be because there are too many speakers. Again, I missed somewhat more depth on the topic of web3 marketing.
- Have more time for community interaction: There was but a small part of the recording that was dedicated to answering questions posed by community members. Decentralized Mic suggestions open floor for participants and panel spearkers imo.
- Isolate more clearly the goal of the session: is the goal to educate, engage or for transparency purposes? Again this has most likely to do with the fragmented structure of the session imo, however from my experience I am more confused and feel that I have less confidence in web3 marketing.
- Have panel members be prepared and engaged: In some cases I felt that some panel members were busy with other things while they were online, which gives off a sense of disinterest. Panel members should be prepared for the topics being discussed. Imo the professor, very cool that he is teaching at universities and its super valuable that he is involved, however in my honest opinion I am unsure about whether a computer science professor should be on a web3 marketing panel.
Please take my feedback as is, a personal point of view on the matter, and open to discuss. Hope this opens the floor for discourse.
Cheers
